I like the shark fins myself. They don't work too bad, either.

It was the first mod I did. Radio works fine... it probably isn't quite as good as a stubby antenna with some length, but I barely ever listen to the radio anyway. Need a picture?

It actually comes with 3M adhesive tape. It tapes on! Easiest installation ever, and its been through two summers and winters now without an issue.

I ordered a Genuine Toyota stubby antenna from Japan. I think the new Matrix uses the same one now though.

Here is a picture of my car with it on.

I bought it from JDM Pit.
